FAQs
Can this bag fit a large smartphone?
The fleece-lined sleeve is designed to fit most standard-sized modern smartphones; however, extremely oversized "Max" or "Ultra" models with bulky cases may be a tight fit.
Is the bag waterproof?
The bag is water-resistant, meaning it can withstand light splashes or brief drizzle, but it is not fully waterproof.
Does it include a water bottle?
No, the bag features a deployable pocket for a water bottle, but the bottle itself is not included.
How do I wash the bag?
Hand wash with mild soap and cold water, then air dry away from direct sunlight.
Can I wear this over or under my jersey?
It is designed to be worn over your jersey for quick access and comfort, though it can be worn under loose-fitting outer layers if preferred.
Troubleshooting
Bag bounces while riding
Tighten the main waist strap and ensure the load inside the bag is evenly distributed so it sits flat against your back.
Water bottle pocket feels loose
Ensure the tension drawstring or elastic mechanism is fully pulled taut to secure the bottle firmly against the side of the bag.
Exterior fabric shows dust/dirt
Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth to wipe down the surface; the air mesh panel can also be gently vacuumed if debris gets trapped.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a stable fit, adjust the waist strap so it sits snugly above your hip bones. If you are using the deployable bottle pocket, ensure your bottle is secure before starting your descent. For care, simply wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after muddy rides. The bag is made of durable materials, but avoid using harsh detergents. If the bag becomes heavily soiled, hand wash in lukewarm water with a mild soap and hang to air dry in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the fabrics and straps.
